Everything and Nothing

Imus Done In By Blogs , I might have a tiny bit of …pity? Sympathy? WHATEVER, one might call it, for the “alleged” VICTIMS of Imus’ HORRIFIC CRIME…IF it actually existed, anywhere, but in the minds of the multitudes of allegedly SHOCKED, people, and “wanna-show-how-non-racist-I-am’s“, all over the place, (read; Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, the ringleaders of this absurd, media circus). Before you take a flying leap down MY throat, let me ask you this; “Why is Rosie O’s treasonous ass still employed, much less, not swinging from a gallows somewhere?“.

Check these quotes from “Hannity and Colmes”, a dialogue between Hannity, Colmes, and Elisabeth Hasselbeck, co-host of ABC’s “The View”; HANNITY: ...All right, let’s talk a little bit — I think everyone in the country now is talking about speech. How far can anybody go? I want to get your opinion on the two people that were sort of leading this charge to get Imus fired. They have controversial, – ahem- , backgrounds. The Reverend Jesse Jackson once said he was sick of hearing about the Holocaust, Hymietown. [My Comment... suuuure, and us "white folk" AREN'T getting sick of hearing about "2 acres and a mule"]… Once admitted he spit in people’s food because they were white. You’ve got the “diamond merchant” comments, “Greek homos, white interlopers” of Al Sharpton, [Ton of credibility THERE huh??]. THINK before you cry about her(Rosie’s) “First Amendment” rights, THINK “Double Standard“, for starters. Personally, I’ve never been a fan of Imus or,[insert loooong list of "SHOCK JOCKS", here], I don’t particularly care for that brand of “humor”, it’s juvenile, and IMHO, appeals to the lowest common denominator. That being said, I have to wonder WHY so many people CARE?? Generally, when I have mud thrown in MY direction, I look at the SOURCE, to determine its importance/relevance, in my life.

WOW!!!!Imus must REALLY be one super important dude, to cause THIS much of a stir, dontcha think? I mean, COME ON, you’d think the guy had a MUCH larger audience than he actually has! Okay…show of hands here, how many people would have heard about this, had ONE OR TWO no doubt, self appointed, “Racial watchdogs”(read; RACISTS, looking for ANY excuse to point a finger at SOMEONE, in order to PROVE they’re “NOT” actually worse bigots than ANYONE), not caught it, and shouted it from the rooftops?? 100? 200? Maybe, more likely, it would have blown over faster than a sun shower. Again, in MY OWN opinion, it’s the BIG DEAL that’s made over things like this, that PERPETUATE THE IDEOLOGY!!!! What did we all learn about the ‘bullies’ at school when we were kids? Anyone??

IGNORE THEM, AND THEY’LL GET BORED, AND GO PICK ON SOMEONE ELSE!!!!!!!!! GOD, how true that is of this “Crying RACISM” shit!!! —WARNING, ADVANCED CONCEPTS COMING UP-– All, this “He said, she said” bullshit does, is bring out the RACIST in EVERYONE, yes Virginia, EVERYONE!!!! Go ahead and delude yourself if you want to, Shakespeare will ALWAYS come to MY mind, “…methinks, the lady, doth protest too much...”, the ones squawking loudest about NOT being bigoted? Are usually the worst. The other night, one of the guests Hannity and Colmes had on, was Dick Gregory . He had to be, one of the most savvy guys I’ve heard, talking about this whole issue, he had a lot of insight into the situation, from his comments about Imus, to those regarding Jackson and Sharpton, that seemed inescapable, and I’ll say another thing about him, that man, is DEFINITELY NOT a racist. You’ll have to go to that link that says “Top Video” (yes, that’s the link I used, but they’re using a proprietary vid. player, so the link takes you to the appropriate page , but you’re on your own on the stream), because I’m unable to quote him word for word on the subject, but he sure does seem to be hip to what the motivations behind this whole debacle were. Some of the remarks made by Elisabeth Hasselbeck , co-host of the ever controversial “The View”, were rather interesting, in a “WHAT?! You can’t be serious!”, sort of way, (you can use the vid links, or read the transcript, whichever YOU find more intellectually stimulating), in all honesty, although I disagree with her, I give her credit for being able to work with Rosie, without throttling her, there is that. Not to mention being a somewhat ‘conservative’ voice, amongst a bunch of flaming whack-jobs.

But again, her case seems to be overstated as well, it’s almost as though Imus (who’s been using the same schtick for years, is suddenly some kind of focal point for all the racial hatred, comments, et al, perpetrated over the last 3 decades or more. With all the media frenzy, all the people hopping on the moral bandwagon. And I’m sorry, let’s face it, it IS/WAS, WAY overblown, I have to ask myself those few nagging questions, why HIM? WHY NOW? Did the media sharks sense that we were all getting a little bored with Brittney, so they threw the public the Anna Nichole tedium, and once they’d milked every last buffalo nickel out of that, along comes Imus. Hey, I’ll tell you how I know this piece is too late……..two words, Virginia Tech, how long will THAT be the #1 story??

It’s the TIMING of all these “events”, that has ME worried…

….which, IS in ITSELF kind of a paranoid sounding, “Rosie-esque, comment….which concerns me EVEN MORE!!!
